Fan change - notifiable?

[Rabbit]

Hi all

Your thoughts on this please. I've been asked to change a ceiling mounted bathroom fan for an inline duct fan to be put in the loft. No need to alter existing wiring - 3 pole switch outside bathroom and manufacturer states that new fan doesn't have to be fused down to 3 amps. Existing 3 core to ceiling fan will connect to new fan without extending.

Would you do this as a like for like change or as it's a different type of fan would you notify it? Or as the new fan is going in the loft is it non-notifiable? I'm not Part P but work with someone who is so can do it as a notified job if needed.

BTW, fan I'm thinking of fitting is 4 inch S&P 250T through about 6m of duct. Anyone had any experience of them?

Cheers

as your fan and all wiring is in the loft, it's not in a special location so i would say not notifiable.

Thanks, I was thinking non-notifiable but then got talking to someone and started wondering about it. Thanks for your reply.

You're not wrong Des. Irritates me that a simple job can get caught up in this stuff but that seems to be how it is at the moment. Cheers.
